A businessman, Mr Chuka Emmanuel, has prayed a Customary Court in Jikwoyi Abuja, to end his marriage.
Emmanuel had on Thursday dragged his wife, Jane to the court over alleged secret marriage.
He said his wife moved out of their matrimonial home only for him to find out that he had remarried and started a family with another man.
He said his wife left him and their three children since 2020 and asked the court to grant him custody of the children.
His divorce petition reads :” my wife moved out of our house without informing me. I later found her new location, when I got there I realize that she had married another man and already has a baby for him.
“It is on this grounds that I seek to dissolve the marriage between us,” he said.
He told the court that his wife left him and their three children in 2020.
“I have been the one taking care of the children, I don’t want anyone to poison their minds against me, I beg this court to stop my wife from coming to my house to see my children in my absence.
“I beg this honourable court to dissolve the marriage and grant me custody of my three sons.” he pleaded.
The presiding judge, Mr Labaran Gusau, adjourned the matter until June 22, for further hearing.
